In platinum, can you catch more than one Rotom, or are you limited like the previous games to one? I want to know if I have to soft reset for it or not.
 
What's the chance of getting a critical hit with a Super Luck Absol, holding a Scope Lens, and using a high critical hit ratio move like Night Slash?
 
@Shelcario: No, not really

You used to have to send them in to mods for approval and take care of that, but now they got rid of that rule

You only get one, but Rotom can breed with Ditto
 
The chance to hit with Absol using Night Slash with scope lens and that luck skill is 33%, you need to use a Dire Hit or something to max it out at 50%.
 
A quick few Platinum Rotom question (forgot the answer long ago), but can you change any Rotom into another form? For example, can I trade a Rotom I bred in D/P to Plat and have it change forms? Also, are the new forms usable over wifi?

Yes; any Rotom can change form. No, they are not usable over Wi-Fi; only local DS-DS wireless.
 
I just picked up Platinum today and wasn't sure about the Rotom Key event. Is it something I can access via wifi now, or is there an event I'll have to wait for? The brochure that came with the game wasn't all that specific...

I'm pretty sure you need to wait for the event.

Judging from this, it's 50% (that's also what I've read everywhere).

50% - Critical hit moves used in combination with Super Luck and a Razor Claw or Scope Lens.
 
rotom-h running toxic, will o wisp, thunderbolt, and overheat or standard defensive gliscor? I have a major lucario weakness. Any other options?

Gliscor is better in the way that Rotom can get OHKOd by a +2 Crunch.
Gliscor can survive any move Lucario tries to do at him (except Ice Punch, which is not that common) and OHKO back with EQ. You can still EV your Gliscor in Speed so you can outspeed Lucario after the SD on the switchin.

So i think Gliscor is better ._.
 
In a Doubles battle if a faster sleeping pokemon uses sleep talk and selects roar/whirlwind are the pokemon being whirlwinded/roared puirsuitable by the slower teamate

example

aerodactyl uses rest
aerodactyl uses sleeptalk
aerodactyl uses roar/whirlwind

scizor uses pursuit

What happens?
does it hit the pokemon leaving?
does it hit the pokemon entering?
or does it fail?
Has this already been tested?
 
Can a mixed Raichu OHKO Blissey with Focus Punch, with and without Stealth Rock? And if so, can you recommend an EV spread?

Nasty Plot/Focus Punch/Encore/Thunderbolt or something.
 
I am looking for help on a Tyranitar lead. I have no idea how to go about this, but I will say that I want it to disrupt other leads while still posing a threat later in the game. I did not much care for the one in the analysis. It would also be great if it was a Special Attack variant, with perhaps a physical move.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
 
What's the standard Rotom-H Scarf moveset? I just got US Platinum, and I'm waiting for cheat codes to become avaliable for the AR, so I'm building my team now.

Also, anyone know when the codes will become available?

Umm, maybe the moveset could be Earthquake, Stone Edge/Crunch, Flamethrower, Ice Beam/Crunch?

Earthquake helps you against Occa Berry Metagross/Jirachi and Heatrans, while Flamethrower is awesome against Skarmory, Scizor, Forretress and Bronzong. Crunch helps against Azelf leads and other psychics like Cresselia, Stone Edge is for opposing flyers like Zapdos while Ice Beam hits Salamence, Flygon and Dragonite hard.
 
Sounds good. I would probably go with Earthquake, Crunch/Dark Pulse, Flamethrower, and Ice Beam/Thunderbolt. Any idea what the EV spread, Nature, and held item should be?
